The stadium is still filling up. It's a hazy day in Beijing, and humid; the poor visibility might be humidity (the air is completely saturated, almost dripping on us).


PVP is filling up too :)

Any websites? Any TV? Anything?


I will be watching on the Danish web TV where they did show several of the jumps of the women's finals. I'll post if I see any vaults shown.

They are currently working on getting the passes posted to the live scoring page (link posted earlier in the thread)

The height progression is 5.15 5.30 5.45 5.55 5.65 5.75

Looks like not too many people jumping at 5.15 or 5.30

First attempt misses for Rovan and Efremov, they are the only two other vaulters at this height.

Pit B is waiting for Pit A, and will certainly have to do so at the next height as well.
